How does this work?

I saw this a few years ago and was told then how it works but I can't seem to remember. Can anyone help me out? It seems to be resurfacing. Thanks in advance Smile

My guess is most of the answers arent possible. Then, whatever answer IS possible, is given the same symbol. If you pay attention to whatever number that you get at the end, there are always the same numbers with the exact same symbol as you.

you can tell whatthe answer is before you even pick anything its just simple math with the options that are given just look at the pattern in the choices

Try doing it with a number where the 2nd number is higher than the first number. The formula doesn't work when you are subtracting a negative number Grin
